Couple of questions on module development.

When I've finished working on a module who should I send the pull request to to ensure that people are downloading the correct version?

Also, how do I get a page on the documentation for adding stuff about the module?

And, thirdly.. how does the upgrade stuff work... I don't think there are any modules that have needed upgrading to copy if from yet!.. :)...

Cheers

Create an account here:
http://codex.gallery2.org/index.php?title=Special:UserLogin&type=signup&returnto=Main_Page
And then just create a new page. Copy one of the existing pages as an example.

Though I'm probably being blind.. but I can't see where you create a new page! :)
